Since we previously showed that a constitutively active form of the short isoform of NFATc1 can activate the Zp-V3 form of the Z promoter in reporter gene assays [20], we examined whether a vector expressing a constitutively active form of NFATc2 can induce lytic EBV reactivation in Akata virus-infected Burkitt lymphoma cells in the presence or absence co-transfected constitutively active (short isoform) NFATc1 and/or constitutively active CAMKIV vectors. Here, NFATC2 is linked to Burkitt lymphoma.
